Cogeneration and Industrial Energy Management Course Overview
This course covers steady-state modeling of industrial energy systems, exergy analysis, thermoeconomic methods, introduction to solar energy systems, and combined heat and power systems. Students will learn about energy saving opportunities, cogeneration, and integrating renewable energy sources into industrial energy systems. The teaching methods include lectures, case studies, group work, and computer laboratory sessions. Prerequisites include fundamentals of engineering thermodynamics and heat transfer. Assessment is through a final oral exam. Taught by Prof. Ing. Mauro Reini, Ph.D.
